lyrics

(Blake) Man I'm the king of these cement slabs.
(Happy Tooth) Duckin obligations like they're pretend jabs.
(Dug) Out there they chew you like pen caps,
you gotta prevent that.
(All) Hmmmmm.......
Get the fuck up off my porch
before I stab you with a fork.
There's no need to start a war
cause you're just bored of being bored.
He's ignored like its a sport.
That's a poor form of support.
(aw yeah, okay)

(Chorus)

Stoop kids afraid to leave his stoop!

(Happy Tooth)
He's been waiting and praying
for the best day.
Sitting and saving these great things
he could just say.
He's been waiting for decades
and only wants to get paid.
Stooping so low
and always waking with headaches,
Dead face, you could call him a hunchback.
He's only scared to leave
because hes walking on thumbtacks.
Drug bags,
and some regular visitors.
If he left he'd never come back
so he holds the perimeter .

(Blake)
His cousins got a (you guessed it)
blue Cobalt.
On the dashboard of course,
a suction Kobold.
He's got nowhere to go.
New lookin shoes,
old soul.
Every social skill beyond
holler and grows mold.
So I'm told,
haven't seen chief in weeks.
He's lonely and struggles in keepin the peace.
On Sundays he's out front
ready to cheat in cleats.
Creeps for weeks
and a fantasy's
why the sheets reek.

(Chorus)

(Dug)
Everybody tells me that Stoop Kid is stupid.
And it's funny
those are the same kids
he has nothing to do with.
A true blue gluestick,
reclusive, he sticks around.
And if you knew what he knew
you'd refuse to do it different now.
The stoop moves as fast as the globe spins.
And outsides an ocean of cold wind and no wins.
No thanks.
Stoops stupor super mundane.
But the roads are all one way,
and every day is some day.

(Chorus)

Happy Tooth Columbus, Ohio

"Both Happy Tooth and BDotJeff spoke to the idea that music can be therapeutic, and writing and recording is now less about reaching a larger audience than steadying the turmoil within. “You do start to question your own motivations, like, why am I doing this?” Happy Tooth said. “And I’ve realized that I love the art, and I have to make it because deep down it makes me feel better.” - MatterNews ... more
